Decided to sell my acer liquid metal and get one of these but it's not playing ball.
Bought it used with it already rooted with CWM installed running CM7 KANG
I wanted to put CM9 KANG onto it but it took ages, for some reason the phone will not work as a mass storage device?
I ended up putting the SD card directly into a usb adaptor and putting a ROM onto it that way.
Now that CM9 KANG is on it still won't work properly as a mass storage device and on top of that there's no google market or anything
And were's the face unlock?
Build quality is amazing though!!
The USB Mass storage is still a bug of CM9!
Here are the google apps, you need to flash them over the rom in CWM:

Thanks!! What's the best overclocking kernal to use with CM9?
Hi, congratulations on your new phone.
For market and face unlock etc, you'll need the latest gapps, which you can find via google, xda search or here
With regards to usb mass storage; I haven't tried it myself, but heard that you can use MTP. My vague recollections from my nook color:
Go to settings
Go to application/memory (forgot, don't have Touchpad on me)
Top right corner there is the onscreen menu button, click on it.
Go to computer connections
Click on MTP or something like that.

Ironkernel, look at my signature.
Just flashed a new kernal and so far so good.
Graphics performance is all over the place, Neocore and quadrant have shown massive gains but nenamark 1&2 along with Taiji has all dropped, the Taiji score on this 2x is 1/3 of what I was getting on my old phone!

Please bear in mind that the ICS builds are all Alpha builds, so really only suitable for developers to analyse. They are not fully working ROM's and cannot be expected to fully work just yet. When it goes to Beta, it will still have issues but less of them, and less severe.

Isn't there an offical ICS update on the way from LG?
Might move over to 2.3 then, Not really a fan of CM... Well not a fan off all the crapware they add....
Best ROMS for me are the ones that stay true to stock....
Can anyone recommend a 2.3 rom that stays tru to stock that will support overclocking?
There is an official LG update on its way, but knowing LG, it might take a whole year so don't get too excited about it...
Uhmm you could use this stock rom:

Hi guys,
Currently running MCR FR15 but was thinking of giving CM7 a try...
Was wondering which people thought was the better rom at the moment in terms of stability / everything working / best battery life?
Cheers in advance.
I would stick with FR15 for now. It is very reliable. CM7 is way too buggy at the moment. Tried it for 1 day and had a couple of reboot.
i have tried both, CM7 is really not ready yet.
Cm7:
Flash video curruption, Sound stuttering, SOUND distortion , USB Mount to PC bug ,
Most important,
CM7 11. has a bug not all people has been experiencing yet, which the EXTernal USB card is not detecting under Recovery mode. THis **** end up having me NVflash my system, and lost everysingle thing on the device.
Note: if you read the forum , and i am not the only one that has this issue.
i will stay with FR15 for sure.
But to me i rather use STOCK LG ROM, issue free. if you can live with a bit slower UI and installation , other than that i think Custom rom isn't really that much better than LG stock rom with all the issue we are experiencing right now
I tried both, too.
MoDaCo feels more solid with less bug but the battery time kills me. Even with all apps suspended it still drains 10%+ overnight.
CM7 is quite buggy, yes. But I managed to get it running quite a-ok. The most important things work well (phone, gps, usb-storage, youtube, gmail etc...). There are a lots of issues with usb-storage doesnt work for some people and the video driver is still full of bugs (broken flash video, on-off animation don't work yet, screen turns on twice at wake ). Still, the best feature of this CM7 gotta be the battery time which is really really really important for me. Installed CM7 nightly 11 2 night ago and the battery drain has been virtually zero overnight. I will have to monitor it a few more days thought. Just wiped the battery stats yesterday so it might have not been correctly showed yet.

CM7 is completely separate to the recovery, and has no bearing on it. Whatever caused the problem was not CM7.

Totally agree with u.
I would stick with stock until CM7 is ready. Paul will lose interest in the O2X like he does with every device and development will stop. CM7 has a much larger development community and when the final builds are released it will be the perfect Android device.
But to be fair, Paul doesn't stop development on a device until his ROM is as good as he thinks he can get it (which, as I found on my Hero & Blade is pretty damn good - not installed FR15 on my O2X, as still thinking about taking it back).
Tested allmost all cm7 nightlies till v11. Its a dawn good rom, but not reliable at the moment because of the freezes and reboots. I will definitely install cm7 final but till then i continue using fr15 FEAR edition (stable and smoothness ****in rocks )
Hi guys,
Bringing this one back from the dead - we're a month on from the original post... is there any change?
Is MCR (FR17) still the best custom rom?
Of has CM or one of the FR18 roms from here surpassed it?
CM7 has come along way, annoying freezes are a thing of the past.
I'd recommend a modaco based rom. I'm running fear edition and it's nice and fast. Cm7 still has some bugs.
I'd recommend making a nandroid and testing a few out for yourself. Backup and restore is a fairly simple process

I'm running CM7 .42 build at the moment, and I must say I'm pretty impressed. Overall feel is better than with Fr16 (haven't used 17+, since that's when I went on to ecperiment with CM7 nightlies), app installation is faster, Gingerbread (should I say more? Well, yes: it brings UI changes I prefer to Froyo, like the widget selection screen, faster UI overall).
I had issues with Slick2x and Spoelstra's GB ROMs rendering my Wifi unstable and unable to connect after a while, but I have flashed CM7 off the official source and it is bloody stable, fast and I have yet to experience that WiFi bug again. (I have had one reboot, but I am pretty sure it was a sucky app (errrr, game) that caused it. Hard to blame CM7 for that.)
I'm currently not going back to Paul's ROMs for a while. I'll stay a subscriber though: he has magic fingers and I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do when LG finally gets us GB....
I'm using the latest CM7 Nightly, it works perfect, but the only issue is that i'm not able to get the internal sd-card mounted.
Anybody got a solution for this?
Look in /mnt/emmc
Thanks, but...
For example the camera won't see it. I think camera app doesn't know the mountpoint. Same at gallery.
Currently, I don't have an external sd-card...
I'll have a try by editing the vold.fstab, perhaps that's it
Edit: just renaming emmc with sdcard and vice versa doesn't solve the problem.
Edit2: It works!
Tested fr17 fearless today, it's nice and quick but i just miss something.. don't know what. Back to cm7

+1 for Modaco or fear Rom CM7 just isn't there yet for an everyday rom, It's close. I still get sound missing or stuttering in MOST music players that only goes away after a reboot but come back randomly. A fair few games just refuse to run under CM7 that run fine under any other non 2.3 rom. So for me any 2.2 based rom is at least usable as 2.3 isn't quit there yet. If you however never use your phone for music/photo or games then CM7 may just be ok for you.
Kernel
Sorry, but you and 'ever fail to install rom with some kernel?? Let me explain:
Device: Lg optimus dual root
Rom can not install anything they "Flesch" kernel Modak r10.
have no problem when I install the nightly cyanogen, all the others I do not like me on whether the cell remains blocked startup that says LG.
Someone knows how to help? Thanks.

Not 100% sure what you're trying to say...I recommend a wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition then dalvik cache in clockwork recovery. Then install your new ROM. If that doesnt work try nvflash back to stock.
So I bought my gf a nook. I am in a weird dilemma on what to install. She wants to do it on her own and finds the default OS on it boring. She needed a tablet. I installed Nookie Froyo which boots from the SD card. I think that may slow down the OS. So heres a quesition break down.
Whats the most reliable ROM? (I think FroYo will be a good OS choice)
What method should I use? Should I make her dual boot?
And anyone wanna warn me about some things?
Shes gonna be doing it all herself while I guide her. And I aint a newbie. Have an Archos 101 and I hang out in the Gen8 forums. Hi tho
Use CM7. It is the best rom out there by far.
If she doesn't like the stock rom then i wouldn't bother with a dual boot.

Someone else may be able to give you more information about the Froyo ROMs available for the nook color.. I personally don't have any experience with them so I can't really contrast the difference between it and the other AOSP ROMS available.
I've had the best experience with the CM7 Gingerbread Roms for the nook color. I'm currently running the 147 Nightly build and I've had no issues with it thus far.
The reason I decided on CM7 over the other available roms mainly stems from the community based around that rom for the nook color. They are actively putting out nightly builds with fixes every few days. As you can see by there nightly repo here http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=encore CM7 is a very snappy rom with bluetooth support as well as usb device support in the works as well, I'd recommend you go with it.
As for method I personally just put it on the device itself. Running roms from a MicroSD card tends to be more of a hassle than its worth in my opinion. You've gotta make sure your MicroSD card has a high data rate or your system will be noticeably slowed down. The only time I'd recommend that is if you absolutely love the default nook interface. But from what you stated it seems like she doesn't even care for it.
I don't really have any warnings aside from following directions while rooting. Although if you've already rooted the stock rom via a MicroSD in CWR you can backup your stock, wipe cache/partition and install CM7 and gapps and be good to go. If you do go that route and install the rom to the nook itself make sure you update Rom Manager once your in CM7, you can then flash cwr to the nook so you don't have to have it on a MicroSD every time you want to update your rom.
CM7 it is. Thanks guys. Now I gotta make a step by step guide

Thank you all for the answers. I got CM7 installed on it =]
Give miui a try, I ran the cm7 nightlies for a couple months and all in its a great rom after you make a few tweaks most importantly to me the LCD density.
Once I saw that miui was released for the nook color I tried it out and don't think ill go back to cm7. Its actually based off the cm7 nightlies but the whole ui is modified and think its alot easier to use for someone that is familiar with android a whole lot.
I could go on but do yourself a favor and give it a try.

I have tried almost every ROM for the NC. I would go with CM7, or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947071, which has been just as stable for me. If you like the Honeycomb interface, use that.
+1 for CM7... fan-freakin-tastic. Use the "Size-Agnostic..." steps to install to an SD card. There's another sticky for installing to emmc (internal memory). The SD path is nice because you can take the card out and reboot to stock, but I found emmc way more stable personally, plus you don't have to worry about having a bad sd card, etc.
CM7 for sure. Real nice, fast, and stable.
I personally use cm7, but you might want to try miui for her.

It's a different design, very iOS-esque.

I don't know for sure, but it seems that samuaz's is texasice's build plus the CM goodies. So I would say samuaz's has more features.

Ok. Hey, aren't you that Cyanogenmod moderator?
That'd be me
why ask--try them both--
Am using texasice's ROM since like day 1 and loving it. Its my daily driver
I tried thrice to use texacise ROM [Alpha 8, ev-1, and latest p3]. There are huge improvements and p3 is quite close to be used as daily rom. However, still there are issues with network dropping off , random soft reboots and many Apps FCing.
Nexy has good future with both these ROMs progressing so fast [it is less than 50 days since google released the code].
The samuaz ROM, looking at the feedback, I'll give it a try for couple of days next week.
Yes I do notice those soft reboots with p3. But no FCs and no network drops. However the progress for each build looks quite promising.
Would be nice if Samuaz too release a mini skirt version for stock Hboot
Yet another reason not to stay on stock Hboot: Camera is already working (not completely) on N1.

I heard the kernel dev over at the Desire forums is going to upload his msm-3.0 sources to guthub and will make it work on the HD2 and Nexus One, of course after it works on the Desire itself.
Just wait patiently and it will be here sooner or later.

That's what I figured, but it seemed to be implied, by indiangeek, that one was already available.
I just upgraded from CM 7 to Texas ICS p4. The market didn't work (my apps didn't auto-sync and re-download - couldn't get it working after an hour of trying), the animations were a little jerky, camera didn't work, USB mass storage didn't work, CM mods weren't there. In it's current form, it could use a little polishing.
I tried Samuaz's MeDroid ICS 4.1 and it works way better. No market issues. Animations are much more fluid, camera works (panorama and video are broken). Gallery doesn't pull in picasa web albums (that'll be fixed today in 4.2). Also, you get CM features, which aren't present in TICS. I got a few force closes, but I think that was due to not rebooting after restoring from mybackup root, as I haven't had the FCs in a while. Oh, and USB mass storage is working, so I can restore apps and data from my backups. Sometimes the USB icon shows up or the app starts up (like at startup) when nothing is plugged in. Minor issue, though.
Upgrade method (some of these flash files aren't signed, so I needed to disable signature verification before they'd flash):
Upgrade bootloader (HBOOT) to 0.35.0017
Flash latest radio (5.12.00.08) - CHECK THE MD5 BEFORE FLASHING
Install Blackrose using the automatic method (It will not work without the HBOOT above)
Install custom blackrose from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366897 - this increases the space available for ICS to install
Use recovery to do a full wipe three times (people had issues only wiping once)
Mount SD card via recovery and deleted/backed up everything.
Flash Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p4-passion.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366897
(Realize a bunch of things weren't working)
Use recovery to do a full wipe three times (people had issues only wiping once)
Flash MeDroid 4.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21093710&postcount=188
To do yet:
Upgrade as soon as 4.2 comes out to fix gallery - I'll probably just use adb to replace the current gallery app - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21097768&postcount=191
Replace MeDroid's boot animation with this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429308
Am I the only one to be a little knee-shaking when it comes to flashing radios? I mean, ****ing up the system or boot seems easily restorable, but flashing a corrupted or unsigned radio may turn your device into a fully usable paperweight?
That's kinda the reason I've stayed with the 5.08.00.04 or what it's called. I mean, it works for me and hasn't bugged in any way, so why upgrade it?
I agree it's scary, but I saw so many people using the same file without issues, I was alright with it. Radios are the only file I check md5 on for this reason.
I think you're ok if fastbooting the img and like loki980 said, checking md5
I've done it a few times with no issues

In all my time in the CyanogenMod forum (which is probably waaay too much time), it seems that the 5.08 is the best supported radio with the N1. I have never seen issues fixed from going from the 5.08 to the 5.12, but I have seen quite a few fixed doing the reverse. A lot of people get great results with 5.12, but it seems that more have better luck with 5.08.
Plus, I am sure that Google did a lot of testing before they sent out the Gingerbread update, and I'd bet there is a reason they included the 5.08 instead of the 5.12.
Whats the best rom available right now for the N1? I haven't tested my N1 with anything in a while been running MIUI but I'm finding it to be sort of laggy now with apps installed.
Fastest? Hmm, pretty much any CM7 self-kang.
This one by samuaz is really fast: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416894
Is that the most stable rom available for nexus one right now?
with multiple full wipes to include system both are stable for me
with ICS by samuaz you need to follow op page exactly
Temaseks latest CM7 Kang with scroll zip is BLAZING
I use now ICS by samuaz, it's fast and really stable. But it's an alpha version!
When you think it's important to have a stable rom, then
use CM7. CM7 roms are as stable as stock, but better ;-)
worth upgrading to ICS or JB?
hello. I realize this thread hasn't been active in a while, but I am thinking to bring back my Nexus One from the grave so I can have a backup phone for my daughter to play with in the car/plane. I wanted to ask if it is worth installing ICS or JB ROMs that are out there. I just have the stock ROM in there now and I always struggled with low memory and lag with some newer apps, that's why I've upgraded phones (I've have a Galaxy Nexus now).
I don't have intentions to put a SIM card in there, so I don't really care about phone call features.. only purely from a processing and lightweight standpoint.
Has anybody played enough with GB vs ICS and/or JB and weighed if it's worth upgrading? I'm assuming that it's worth it because so many developers still have Nexus One ROMs... that's why I would just go ahead and install it, but then I'm thinking again if it's just going to bog down the phone if I'm going to only use it for simple games.
Thanks in advance!!

Hello! I have installed the CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.2 v6.0 that is based on CyanogenMod and Evervolv, and works fine for me. I also have installed all the /data partition in the SD card with the A2SD script that is incorporated in the ROM... it generates some few lags, but I didn't have had any problem of lack of space again.
In my opinion, this is the ROM of JB that best preserves the native Android interface, and in my case is stable (until 7 days without to require a reboot!).
Other JB ROMs that users frequently use are PARANOIDANDROID and PixelDroid.
Thanks for the quick response! That is the ROM I was thinking of as well. However, just as a comparison, I'm thinking to flash a clean version of GB back onto the phone as well. Any recommendations on any GB ROMs as well? Thanks!

This is my main phone. In several times I though changing to other new Nexus device, but the screen size of new devices is too big for me! I like a screen size from 3.7 to 4.0, that is good to read mails, a brief navigation in the Internet, and other minor issues. For other intensive uses, I have my tablet Nexus 10 or my laptop.
Tonight I'm getting a new LG O2X, and I've been reading about roms and stuff. I decided to install the CM7 Kang RC1 with Etana OC kernel, but first I'd like to know if I'm going to miss features like the front camera in skype/tango, or if the app "LG Touch LED Notifications" will work, which looks very useful because of the lack of a notification led.
If that kind of features don't work, I'll probably stick to a stock based rom. Thanks in advance!
No. To have perfect combo between stock and CM7 I use Hybrid ROM.
But 1080p playback is not working for me. Anyone knows why? On stock rom (2.2.2) i worked i think.
this one?
You mean this one?
I kinda have the same question, adding something else: how's the support for the Tegra video card? If we go out of the stock rom do we lose any performance over graphics and stuff?
Unless you run a modded kernel that allows OC; there isn't much of a difference between stock and CM when it comes to performance gains (+- since stock has a lot of crap that tend to slow down the device, but can be removed of course).

I installed that rom, build 100 and everything is working perfectly I installed ETaNa kernel just because I read people recommending it but I'm still not sure about what the kernel does besides allowing overclock (which I haven't done because I haven't felt it's necessary). Any other advantages?
Just want to confirm, Temasek knows his ****! : )
I was at first rather careful with ROM's and installed CM7 stable (1 year old ROM) on my LG 2x, just to see how it will work. After few months of good use (everything working just great) I suddenly couldn't enable data & 3G networks on the device. Then battery started to show weird issues, like phone will turn on itself and show that it's charging.
10 minutes I go I gave it leap of faith and installed latest Temasek's CM7 RC2-102, MIND BLOWN. Not only it works OOB without ANY issues, fixing the battery and data problem, installation just UPDATED my current ROM to Temasek's build, which means I didn't lose any settings, apps or ANYTHING.
Just install Temasek's builds, you won't regret it.
BTW, how to donate to Temasek, I couldn't find DONATE button?
Cheers!

Thank you.
No one rom is perfect. Soon you will find something not working or something u don't like. Overall cm7 is a very good rom.
Btw I don't ask for donations so u wont see any donation link.
Thanks.
everything is fully functional on cm7 since the fm radio was fixed (and that was a LONNNNGGG time ago)
only things that can be glitchy are the completely NEW features them devs are makin up
and no you dont loose any kind of graphics performance or w.e when going to cm.
yes, front camera also works...
Well, I think video calls don't work, as that is a function of the stock telefone app, but I might be mistaken.

not only you dont lose, but you also gain... best stock rom+best stock kernel vs best cm7 rom+best cm7 kernel cm7 wins everytime by a big difference, and in graphics some cm7 combos even boost your fps's a bit
Go for Django Manouche stock rom, all works, crap LG apps gone and aroma installer, if cm temasek
